Reviews

"Spiritual director Albert Haase, OFM, distills deep insight and practical steps into a readable, warm welcome to living a life that is more Spirit-led in This Sacred Moment."
*Sojourners, March 2011*

"Albert Haase gives simple and profound inspiration to finding your way in his footsteps and with memoirs of others who have chosen his path. This Sacred Moment is a charming and driven read for those who want a bit of divinity in their own lives."
*James A. Cox, The Midwest Book Review, February 2011*

"Providing practical wisdom for becoming holy in the middle of 'ordinary' life, Fr. Hasse offers examples by highlighting real people becoming holy as they raise their children, cope with illness, care for elderly parents, or show kindness to strangers."
